35347, Installing the Autometer electric oil pressure sending unit and.... Posted by jdeyo, Oct-20-02 04:26 PM
I read the write up on the main page and I got a little confused. I went under my car and there are two sensor (sending units) on the back of the block. Facing the back of the block there is a sensor on the left (driver side) that has a single yellow wire coming out the the harness. About 6 inches to the right (passenger) there is another sensor that has one green wire and one white wire coming out of the harness. Which one do I remove in order to tap into the block?
I thought I would be smart and instead of buying a T fitting to T the stock sending unit and autometer one, I bought a cross fitting. The cross fitting (+) has four female holes. One goes into the block, one to the stock unit, one to the autometer unit, and one is for the future oil feed line to the turbo. I have a plug in it now. The whole assembly with the cross fitting and autometer unit is much bigger than I though. I hope the weight of this thing does not damage anything. The manual says to torque the sending unit on the block to 8 lbs, but when I put the autometer unit on I am not sure if it will hold. It is so bulky.
